MaxQ: You people are useless! I demand a refund! I STILL haven't received a definitive answer to the question
Do we have a word for this concept? In due honor, it should be named by, or for, MaxQ). Any nominees?
And now, off to another posting: I must MaxQuse myself elsewhere.

If we must have a new word, how about remodelling "unrequited" to "unrequordled".

I like it, Dr. Bill. The Unrequordled Question, wasn't that a tone poem by Charles Ives?

Dear Helen: When Max is entitled to a replevin, he is requordled. When you are similarly defrauded, we need another new word. I challenge your admirers, or whom there are so many talented persons, to devise one suitable to apply to you.

Well, this has edged over into the realm of W & F, but for the nonce it's here.
When our Helen is cheated, she is detroyed, of course. And all restitution is retroyactive.

Since no volunteers have appeared, I will coin a word for Helen. I found a coined word in an ad for new accessories for SimCity, to enable kids to "retrovate" their megalopolis. So when Helen has been wrongfully deprived, we must "retroyate" her.

I was just thinking about the Wordapalooza and what I would need to do to get my butt from dear old Blighty to Michigan. When I have it all organised, I believe I will have the trip intowellated.
